Chapter 900: Chapter 900: Replica Ancient Saint, Minor Immortal Realm, The Whereabouts of the Saints Chapter 900: Chapter 900: Replica Ancient Saint, Minor Immortal Realm, The Whereabouts of the Saints “Celestial Clan?”
Ye Feng, Ancient Sacred True Dragon, and Star River Saint stood there, perplexed, not understanding why the Replica Ancient Saint would say such a thing.
“Are you people of the Celestial Clan?” Ye Feng looked to the Ancient Sacred True Dragon and Star River Saint.
“No!” Both shook their heads in unison.
“What a coincidence! I’m not either; I’m from Shenzhou.” Having said that, Ye Feng turned to look at the Replica Ancient Saint.
“You are not people of the Celestial Clan?”
This time, it was the Replica Ancient Saint’s turn to be stunned.
Ye Feng and the others exchanged a glance then spread their hands, unison in their response, “We have never been people of the Celestial Clan.”
“Then…” The Replica Ancient Saint was at a loss for words.
He had originally believed that these three were definitely from the Celestial Clan, because, in the entire Starry Sky World, aside from this place, only Shenzhou and the Celestial Clan still had Saints presiding over them.
And the people of Shenzhou had said they had no new Saints.
The young man before him, who emitted the aura of the Celestial Clan’s Heavenly Dao, could only be a Saint of the Celestial Clan.
But now, they were saying they were not from the Celestial Clan!
“No, fake!”
The Replica Ancient Saint glared with rage, staring at Ye Feng, “You have the aura of the Celestial Clan’s Heavenly Dao on you; you can’t possibly not be from the Celestial Clan.”
“I also have the aura of Shenzhou’s Heavenly Dao!”
After speaking, Ye Feng took a step forward, and the aura of the Celestial Clan’s Heavenly Dao that belonged to him instantly vanished, replaced by the pure momentum from Shenzhou, enveloping the Replica Ancient Saint.
“How can this be?”
The Replica Ancient Saint was greatly shaken in his heart.
How could the same person have the Heavenly Dao aura from two different Great Thousand Worlds?
This was no different from cheating, he thought to himself.
“We are not people of the Celestial Clan. If you have attacked us because we carry the aura of the Celestial Clan, then, as the Sect Leader, I want to say, this is a misunderstanding,” Ye Feng said calmly.
“Sect Leader? Within the Celestial Clan, there seems to be no Sect Leader. Could it be that you truly are a native Shenzhou force’s Sect Master? But when did Shenzhou gain such a strong figure like you?” expressed the Replica Ancient Saint, finding it hard to believe.
“If you don’t believe me, go and see for yourself in Shenzhou,” Ye Feng let go of the dual domains that had been suppressing the Replica Ancient Saint.
“I’ll take a look!”
The Replica Ancient Saint wasn’t afraid of a sneak attack from Ye Feng; the latter was very strong, and would have already made his move if he intended to kill him.
“Starry Sky Celestial Eye, activate!”
The Replica Ancient Saint formed a seal with both hands, channeling his profound Immortal Dao power to activate a contingency he had left in Shenzhou.
On the Shenzhou Continent.
Deep beneath a certain sea, there was a massive mountain range that suddenly began to tremble, like a flower blooming, revealing an inner moon-white colored eyeball.
Whoosh!
It ascended into the sky a million miles high, its surface sending out wisps of pale white aura, swiftly covering the entirety of Shenzhou, collecting the various events that had occurred over the recent years.
“Ye Feng, Misty Sect’s Sect Leader!”
“In just a few years, he led Misty Sect to become a Four Star Level force, and moreover, he became the Son of Destiny.”
“He defended against the Celestial Clan, built Thunder Palace, executed Shenzhou’s traitor Yin Rurong, severely injured Destiny Empress and Rushu Tiansheng—these two Celestial Clan Heavenly Saints—and was revered as the Guardian God of Shenzhou!”
“You… you’re actually the Son of Destiny!”
The Replica Ancient Saint continued to observe events that had happened in Shenzhou recently through the Starry Sky Celestial Eye. Learning Ye Feng’s identity, he became increasingly astonished.
“Now, do you still doubt my identity?” Ye Feng, sitting in front of the great hall, asked smilingly.
“It turns out, you’re a friendly force; almost causing injury by mistake, sorry!” The Replica Ancient Saint quickly made a formal bow as an apology.
“Friendly force? What’s going on?” Ye Feng looked around, “This world… it’s actually at the Great Thousand Worlds level, but it seems incomplete and not whole.”
The Replica Ancient Saint, looking apologetic, explained:
“Our place is known as the Minor Immortal Realm, indeed not a complete Great Thousand World, but a corner of the Immortal Realm, having reached the ordinary Great Thousand Worlds level.”
“A corner of the Immortal Realm?”
Interest piqued, Ye Feng and the others awaited further explanation with curiosity.
The Replica Ancient Saint continued:
“The Immortal Realm I belong to is an Upper Realm, its level is much higher than your Shenzhou counterpart, and its Heavenly Dao is at the Heavenly Dao Realm Level.”
“A million years ago, a great war erupted, causing a corner of the Immortal Realm to be torn away, and I found myself adrift in this mysterious starry sky world along with it.”
“Since then, I have never been able to return.”
“Later, I refined the Minor Immortal Realm and became the master of this place. My strength gradually improved, and with the Power of the World, I was not afraid of even the Heavenly Saints if I fought desperately.”
“But there were also drawbacks.”
“That is, I cannot stray too far from the Minor Immortal Realm.”
“In the time that followed, I devoted myself to developing the Minor Immortal Realm and nurtured many prodigies.”
“Until ten thousand years ago, the Myriad Transformations Holy Land Sovereign from Shenzhou decided to venture out to break through and, by a twist of fate, arrived at our Minor Immortal Realm.”
“It was then that the anomaly occurred.”
“Suddenly, a Gate of the Immortal Realm opened within the Minor Immortal Realm. Countless enemies from the Immortal Realm descended, trying to seize control of the Minor Immortal Realm.”
“To prevent Shenzhou from also being affected, the Myriad Transformations Holy Land Sovereign took action and killed the invaders.”
“Soon after, the passageway closed.”
“This issue, for the time being, was put to rest.”
“Because of this battle, the Myriad Transformations Holy Land Sovereign became my friend, and to me, Shenzhou was an ally.”
“But, what we didn’t expect was that subsequently, every five hundred years, the Gate of the Immortal Realm would open once, each time lasting an hour, and strong beings from the Immortal Realm would invade here.”
“Such wars continued for thousands of years.”
“With the passage of time, every Saint Realm in Shenzhou learned of the Minor Immortal Realm’s existence and came here to fend off the enemies.”
“Thousands of years ago, all the Saint Realms of Shenzhou joined forces to pass through the Gate of the Immortal Realm and ventured into the Outer Realm. Since then, they never returned, nor do we know if they are alive or dead.”
“What’s strange is that, since they attacked the Immortal Realm, there have been no more assaults on our Minor Immortal Realm.”
“Although the Gate of the Immortal Realm still opens every five hundred years, it no longer affects us here in the Minor Immortal Realm.”
“After all, there are no longer any enemies from the Outer Realm.”
“The matter is more or less as such.”
The voice of the Replica Ancient Saint stopped abruptly.
Hearing this, Ye Feng was speechless.
Could these Ancient Saints be fools?
All the Saint Realms heading over without leaving a single one behind for defense—what would happen to Shenzhou if the Celestial Clan appeared?
This was utterly unreasonable!
If this was a decision made by all Ancient Saints in their lucid moments, there could be only one possibility.
They went willingly!
Because on the other side of the Gate of the Immortal Realm, there must be something more important than the safety of Shenzhou.
But all of these were just Ye Feng’s speculations.
As to whether this was the case, he could not be sure.
“Replica Ancient Saint, do you know why they went there without any hesitation?” Ye Feng asked.
“I do not know,” the Replica Ancient Saint shook his head.
“In the first few thousand years, they seemed to have discovered nothing, but starting from five thousand years ago, the Myriad Transformations Holy Land Sovereign seemed to have found something, and became very excited.”
“Later on, they all went together and haven’t returned to this day.”
“However…”
“They are all still alive.”
The Replica Ancient Saint stretched out his hand and produced a treasure box containing dozens of Soul Beads.
“It’s the Jiaoyang Ancient Saint’s Soul Bead!” Ye Feng recognized one of them, greatly surprised, “I am still very curious, why did they leave these Soul Beads and venture there?”
“Perhaps, they can advance faster there,” guessed the Ancient Sacred True Dragon.
“Even so, they didn’t have to all leave. They should have left some of the Saint Realms to sit in Shenzhou to prevent any accidents,” thought Ye Feng.
“How much time is left before the next opening of the Gate of the Immortal Realm?” the Star River Saint asked curiously.
“Over twenty years,” said the Replica Ancient Saint.
“That’s quite a while,” murmured Ye Feng.
Although he wished to delve deeper, since even the Replica Ancient Saint was unaware of the true purpose of the others’ departure, he could only change the subject and asked, “Do you know of Spatial Crystals, Immortal Spirit Jade, God Demon Blood Diamond, Storm Eye of Barrier Breaking, Light and Dark Crystals?”
“I do,” the Replica Ancient Saint nodded, “These materials are used to create the World-breaking Pearl. In our Immortal Realm, every Immortal Dao Realm possesses them.”
“That’s great!” Ye Feng exclaimed with joy.
His purpose for this journey was to find materials, and now that he had finally found them, he was incredibly delighted.
